Buying a couch shouldn’t feel like an existential crisis. But then you start asking: Leather or fabric? Splurge or save? Minimalist or do I need 12 throw pillows for my soul?
Before you know it, this isn’t about furniture—it’s about your values, your habits, and how you make choices.
The truth? Balance is found in the small stuff. The way we think about everyday decisions shapes how we handle the big ones. And every overthinking spiral is just a disguised lesson in figuring out what truly matters.
So, what’s the last “small” decision that sent you into a mental boot camp?
Waiting for the ‘right time’? You’ll be waiting forever.
How many times have you told yourself “I’ll start when I’m ready”?
I’ll quit my job when things settle down.
I’ll get in shape when life isn’t so hectic.
I’ll have that tough conversation… later.
Spoiler: later turns into never.
Seneca said it best: “While we wait for life, life passes.”
The truth? There is no perfect moment. No magical sign. No day where everything aligns just right. The only time you actually have is now.

I want to give recognition to the woman in my life: my wife Elise and my two girls, London and Isla-Rose. They are my driving force that make me do what I do and support me all the way. Couldn’t ask for a better family.

Having started my first sales job at the ripe age of 18, I spent the first few months working in a call centre, cold calling hundreds of people a day, trying to convince them to buy a product priced at a whopping $18k. Without success…
This is where my passion (near-obsession) was ignited and began my journey of personal development and the desire to understand what made people buy (and what didn’t)… I studied the deep psychology of this and thus I began the journey of improving my sales and marketing skills.
By the age of 21, I had built a successful sales company and was personally earning in excess of $1.2mil a year.
Then one day, it all came tumbling down. After a failed business partnership, I went from earning over $1.2mil a year to being $200K in debt and suddenly not having a job… All in one day.
With a beautiful wife and daughter to support, I jumped straight into what I knew I would yet again thrive in…sales and marketing...
Fast forward to today and I now run Yakk, a successful Digital Marketing Agency, that I built by cold calling from my bedroom with only $50 to my name! My obsession for learning and developing still hasn't changed but is now geared towards finding ways to get better results for my clients across all digital marketing platforms - This often results in "Doing Things Differently" hence the companies slogan.
Recently, I've found a new purpose that works alongside my company which is to not only deliver unprecedented results for the client of Yakk but also help other small to medium business owners that want to learn to dominate the digital space themselves. This is done through workshops, I'm hosting and speaking at. We cover everything a business needs to know to stand out from the heard and get customers banging on their door to do business!
I’m also a father to 2 beautiful kids, London (5yo) and Isla-Rose (2yo), the one in the photo above.
My wife Elise is my best friend and has been by my side through all our ups and downs and I can’t thank her enough for being there for me!
